Brand guidelines
How Make Your Claim looks, speaks and stays compliant. For third-party agencies and the internal team. Make Your Claim is a trading style of Benson Goldstein Ltd and must never be locked up with the Benson Goldstein mark.
Logo
The wordmark is a scripted "Make your claim." set in brand blue. Never redraw, recolour, stretch or add effects. Clear space: the height of the "M" on all sides. Minimum height 24px on screen.
Colors
Deep blues carry trust; orange carries action. Max two block colours per view. Click a swatch to copy its hex.
Typography
One family: Inter (Google Fonts), weights 400–800. Headlines are Extra Bold (800) with tight leading; body is Regular 17px/1.6. Key figures are bolded inline.
Inter is the nearest open match to the live site's face — pending confirmation. Get Inter →
Iconography
Thin-stroke orange line icons, usually inside a thin orange ring on white cards. Navy filled circles with white checks for list bullets. The blue/orange check-burst is the trust mark. No emoji, ever.
Where the original SVG set isn't available, use Lucide line icons (2px stroke) tinted CTA orange — the approved substitute.
Buttons & UI components
Every button is a full pill. The CTA label is always "Find Your Agreements". Radii: pill buttons, 12px inputs, 16px cards, 24px panels.
Live React components for all of these ship in this design system (components/core, forms, content).
Imagery & photography
Warm, natural-light lifestyle photography of real people checking their finances — plus cut-out car and receipt composites for the claim story. No illustration, no stock-blue corporate imagery.
Tone of voice & copy rules
- Second person: "you could be owed compensation"
- First-person plural for the firm: "we will find your agreements"
- Plain English — explain jargon inline (PCP, HP, DCA)
- Benefit-led headlines, often questions
- Bold the key tokens mid-sentence: basic details, 2007+
- The CTA string is always "Find Your Agreements"
- Sentence case headlines; Title Case CTAs
- No emoji, no exclamation marks, no urgency/scarcity language
- No em or en dashes in new output — use commas or hyphens
- UK English throughout
Compliance rules
MYC is a regulated claims brand (SRA-regulated Benson Goldstein Ltd). These are non-negotiable in every asset:
Every new marketing asset goes through the MYC ad compliance review before publication. Findings are subject to compliance sign-off (Javid).
Social & ad templates
Ready-made, compliance-footed layouts. Figures and disclaimers travel together — do not separate them.
Email template
600px single-column, white card on the light blue ground, orange pill CTA, full regulatory footer. Table-based HTML, safe for major clients.
